On the difficult “path” in the Final 8 of the Greek Cup, the coach of Kolossos Rhodes stood at the Press Conference, Ilias Papatheodorouwhile he humorously emphasized the possibility of facing the… Golden State Warriors in the final.
The players of the Rhodes team were represented by the captain, Haris Yiannopoulosemphasizing that it is important for Greek basketball that a Final 8 is organized.
Ilias Papatheodorou (Colossus coach): “I want to congratulate EEC for the initiative to organize the first Final 8. It is important for all Greek basketball to have a celebration and I hope it ends in the same way. The emotions are intense for me whenever I go to Crete, I experienced intense moments there with the national teams and also with AEK.
It is important for Kolossos and Rhodes to participate in a historic institution, especially this year when there is a Final 8. The draw was not on our side, we have a Calvary ahead of us. We face Panathinaikos, in the long-term scenario we will play Olympiakos and I feel that if we reach the final we will play the Warriors… We will do our best, good luck to everyone.”
Haris Yiannopoulos (leader of Colossus): “It is important for Greek basketball that the Final 8 takes place and I want to congratulate EEC. Memories are good to remember or tell your children. But you can’t dwell in the past. You don’t think about anything other than the present.”
